3.5 uploading image to admin

Why in gods sake would you make an update more complicated? The add media button on the admin is not working properly. The previous versions you can view the previous uploaded media to each post by pressing the “add media” button. Now its gone. Any fix on this?

I don’t get why wordpress feels the need to fix something that ain’t broke.

On my 2nd site, http://www.skolaiimages.com/journal/ I had a similar problem, but switching to Twenty Twelve fixed it, and when I switched back, it works correctly. That did NOT work on my expeditions alaska site.

I’ve had nothing but trouble with WP 3.5 in this regard. Each time I try to upload an image, the image churns and churns, the blue check box comes over the box where the image SHOULD have been uploaded, and I get a red error box a moment later. Over and over I’ve tried making this work. Why on earth is WordPress making their software HARDER and more frustrating to use???
